Sujet: playoff push
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CD282</b></div><div>Koskinen has been better than Georgiev, that's for sure. Over the past 2 years, Koskinen posted a .910 save percentage to Georgiev's .908. And Koskinen's mark was dragged down by the beginning of 20-21 when Smith was injured and Holland screwed up the backup situation repeatedly, and it meant that Koskinen had to play every game of a wicked schedule - 12 games in 24 nights traveling thousands of miles through 4 time zones - which isn't something ANY goalie can stand up under. It wasn't fair to Koskinen but Tippett had little choice but to keep throwing him over the boards, so his results were poor over that stretch. I don't fault Koskinen for that, he did his best in an impossible situation.

If you pull those 12 games out of the equation to get a look at how he performs under normal circumstances, his save percentage over the past two seasons is .916, well above Georgiev's .908.

And before you blame NYR's defense, know that Koskinen faced 32.60 shots/60 to Georgiev's 31.99 SA/60 in all situations, and 32.34 SA/60 vs Georgiev's 31.03 at 5v5. Its not quality of shots either, as Koskinen has faced 8.50 HDSA/60 while Georgiev has faced 7.46.

Edmonton is in Win Now mode, they aren't going to downgrade their goaltending this year. And to expect them to give up a high pick and a decent prospect to make their team worse is silly.</div></div>

I would go with the younger goalie but whatever. edmonton wont go far with a smith/koskinen tandem behind that defense just watch

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Saskleaf</b></div><div>I disagree that's it's the smart thing to do. I think it's short sighted and not being able to look ahead. In the short term, you lose a 3rd pairing defenseman.

Then, depending on what you do, you could gain a top 4 defenseman at the trade deadline, thereby increasing the jets chance at the cup.

If you can't find a good deadline trade, do an offseason one. Of if worse comes to worse, you've got yourself a nice prospect.

My point is when you can get a first for a 23 year old 3rd pairing defenseman, you should do it, regardless of whether or not you're contending. Unfortunately GM's don't realize this strategy very often. The only time I can remember a team flipping their first at the deadline is TB with Coleman.</div></div>

Idk if stanley is worth a 1st people saying its too high for him
